If you are resident in Scotland but voting from abroad, remember it
will take time for your voting pack to reach you, and for you to send it
back. If you are applying close to polling day, you may find it easier
to apply for a proxy vote instead.

The last date for postal vote applications was 5pm on Tuesday 18 April 2017.

Proxy voting:If you are not able to vote in person or by post then you can apply to vote by proxy.
This means you can ask someone to go to a polling station and vote for
you. Your proxy can also apply to vote by post, if you apply early
enough.

You must apply for a proxy vote in advance. It is illegal for
someone to vote for you if you have not been granted a proxy vote.

The last date for normal proxy applications was 5pm on Tuesday 25 April 2017.

Emergency proxy:If you have a medical or work emergency, you can apply for an emergency proxy up until 5pm on polling day:

"I am in love with this world" - John Burroughs

"I am in love with this world ... it has been my home. It has been my point of outlook into the universe. I have not bruised myself against it, nor tried to use it ignobly.

I have tilled its soil, I have gathered its harvests, I have waited upon its seasons, and always have I reaped what I have sown. While I delved, I did not lose sight of the sky overhead.

I have climbed its mountains, roamed its forests, sailed its waters, crossed its deserts, felt the sting of its frosts, the oppression of its heats, the drench of its rains, the fury of its winds, and always have beauty and joy waited upon my goings and comings."

"The value of kindness"

"Of the sweets of adversity, and let me say that these are not numerous, I have found the sweetest, the most precious of all, is the lesson I learnt on the value of kindness. Every kindness I received, small or big, convinced me that there could never be enough of it in our world. To be kind is to respond with sensitivity and human warmth to the hopes and needs of others. Even the briefest touch of kindness can lighten a heavy heart. Kindness can change the lives of people."
